Despite having a shoestring budget, which is a common situation for sports athletes from the Philippines, our country was able to field in the 6-man team. Although they were not able to bring home the medals, they were able to experience first hand the Olympics for deaf people.

History of Deaflympics

Held every four years, the Deaflympics were first organized in Paris, France with 145 participating athletes from nine European countries.

Despite not winning any medals, this blogger remains proud of you and holds you in high esteem. Congratulations!🙂

Probably if our government would focus more on supporting sports and our athletes and not putting all their efforts on corruption and scandals, we may be able to produce more gold medalists and make our country proud.
